NBA: TheColi's top 5 under 25 at each position?

[Box Factory]

I'm including anyone born in '91 and onwards, if we're excluding them it changes things a bit

I tried to go strictly under 25 and it got pretty ugly. Was hard to fill out a few positions

25 and under is fine, like Kawhi turns 26 after the season/playoffs end.

 

[jaguar paw]

Kyrie's only 24

And to think they judge him like he's 30.

:sasdrunk2:

 

[Reid2Achieve]

PG and SG looking real

There hasn't been a great SG prospect in a minute

 

[MooseMouthMthafuga]

Low key KCP got the most potential at the 2 position.

Devin Booker....6'7, 3 yrs younger, can pick n pop, ISO, post up, and play a lil pg.

Just wait until the Suns get rid of Knight & Bledsoe.

In a few years, he might be a top 10 player in the league.

I don't think KCP has that kind of potential

1)Giannis Antentukmpo
2)Harrison Barnes
3)Kawhi Leonard

Point Guard
1) kyrie Irving

They're going to play Simmons at the 4? If so that changes what you're looking for in the draft, most likely you'd be able to go after Jonathan Issac or OG Anunoby with the Lakers pick if that's the case.

Oh I have no idea where they're gonna play him. I just slotted him based on where I think his future is,same thing I did for Towns. I can't tell you what this front office/coaching staff has in mind for Simmons cause they're dumb as fukk. I think he's a 4 who can possibly play the 3 fulltime. Anything outside of that is bullshyt especially at the 1 lol.

Why so many of yall got Towns at center? I mean I know they label him that and the coach has him playing that but he's horrible defensively there and is out of position IMO. A couple rumors have them trading for Nerlens just to get him out of the 5 and bringing Dieng off the bench.

 

[Da_Eggman]

SG is looking pretty garbage but think Devin Booker has the potential to put up big numbers for awhile tho his defense is atrocious

Center
1) Karl Anthony Towns ( no debate at this point)

Nah, there's definitely a debate there, cause KAT isn't even in the same zip code as Embiid when we're discussing defense. He's as good defensively as Rudy Gobert, who is the gold standard of defensive centers, while also being just as good offensively as KAT.

If the goal is to play him at the 4 it changes the draft a little, still go with a PG first, but now instead of looking for an SG (there aren't any) you could look at OG who looks like he'll be an elite 3 & D guy, or Jonathan who has a lot of potential but will take a while to develop.


I think KAT is a PF to be honest, I just have him at C since that's what he currently plays.

couple lists i agree with.
@Malta what you think about myles turner above drummond? Andre hasn't gotten much better the last couple seasons to me. turner already has an okay three point shot and can make a free throw

I put Turner above Drummond on my list, I am highly disappointed with Andre, he has the physical tools to be the best center in the league but just doesn't seem to care. His first 3 years there was growth, and he even tried working on post moves, I think they stunted his development when they got rid of Sheed.

Low key he was thriving when he was with the PAWG.

Once he dumped Jeanette, he stopped progressing
